You are currently in the planning phase of the audit for the year ended 30 June 2018. Since your last audit, Colourful has introduced a website that allows its customers to view information of its product lines and place their purchase orders online. The website also provides customers with enquiry access to Colourful's inventory database, so that they can assess the availability of stock prior to ordering. You have held a planning meeting with the audit team and explained that your risk assessment procedures this year will vary from those performed in the past because of the introduction of Colourful's internet-based e-commerce operations since the last audit
